I am a grandparent of a student. I went to school from 1955 to 1967 in Jersey City, N.J. 1/3 of my school was black, 1/3 was Hispanic, 1/3 was white, and people from all over the world, including every religion. We all learned to respect the differences, and PS#37 staged the customs and dress of every students ethnic background on stage. If at the end of a great education, you failed, it was your fault. GOD BLESS TEACHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
